One good year in his entire career. There was a reason GC were happy to offload him bloke is a plodder and soft as butter wasnt a fan of getting him
I doubt the crows would want him when they have thilthrope and Fogarty
both forwards, not rucks
ROB is a fair step up from Bryan. Led the league in hitouts last year. Though he probably only has a couple of years left, and long-term it would be a good opportunity for Bryan. But Adelaide only play one ruck, so heād be playing SANFL for a few years before getting his chance.

No forum turns on a player quicker than Blitz.
Short memories exist on so many.
He gets wiped out by the AFL because he went too tough on an opposition player, yet heās deemed too soft on here.

On Blitz, you are either elite or crap; there is no inbetween.
On Blitz, average means poor not average.

He was never a physical forward, even when he got suspended it was because he half arsed it. If he put his arms up to mark he would have been fine. A forward like Caddy wouldnāt have taken his eyes off the ball and it would have been play on.
Having said all that, heās still gets to enough contests, if he had some half decent small forwards at his feet we would look a lot better. Time to move past him though.

He is soft, I canāt see why anyone would dispute that
He is a very poor contested mark, which at his size and the position he playās- that needs to be your strength

Yes it is a cop out - but not the one you were thinking of. It was the Club who gutted his confidence by not challenging the suspension, in court if necessary. It was the Saga writ small, and once again the Club officials didnāt have the guts to support our player.

I cant think of a time where Peter busts open a pack by taking a big contested mark
Wright isnāt a ruck either
we were talking about bryan
2mp should have picked Blakey up and given him a WWE style back breaker when that faux tough guy was talking smack to him post the Cunningham incident.
Sure, it would have ended with a Phil Carmen level of suspension, but so worth it.
Our contract department has given 4+ year contracts for average to good players or good players with a splash of great for the better part of the past 10-15 years
Blitz is simply tired of the over inflation of our players output.
When you donāt win a final in over 20 years in a competition where equalisation is standard, average means poor

Noā¦they have just been below average and poor.
Thank goodness we drafted another forward
Spot on Perce. We had a chance to say no this is all wrong. Use the best defence we could muster. But we rolled over like a wet lettuce leaf. Weak insipid mindset.

My bad sorry mate
Maybe we are all over analyzing 2MP and its simply a case of - ālooks like Tarzan plays like Janeā.
He took us to finals off his own boot that time he kicked 7 against the Bulldogs.
